That’s different. Scholarships are usually named. You might want to have your student reach out to the colleges where he or she was awarded merit scholarships to ask them for specifics. Particularly for endowed scholarships, providing a “thank you” is important (and sometimes required).

I don’t care how they are named. I only care about how much they reduce my final bill I have to pay.

Well at the very least you do need to understand if scholarships are for one year only, or for each of the 4 years, or whether it’s the total amount over the 4 year period.

Also, sharing the name of the scholarship helps others understand what may be available from a given school. That’s how this community works.
